Evidence snapshot for Isle of Man
The Isle of Man has pursued coordinated evidence-based policy across equality, digital upskilling and economic development. Its 2017 Equality Act narrowed the gender pay gap from 25% (2019) to 9.7% average weekly pay by 2025, though a real gap persists. The government launched Activate AI in 2024, training over 1,200 residents across 60+ courses and supporting 28 cross-sector pilots that generated an estimated £2 million in productivity gains in 2025, building toward a £1 million National AI Office established in January 2026. E-gaming and digital licensing contribute 17.6% of GDP and generated nearly 1,000 jobs in 2023, though sector growth appears to be slowing as of early 2026.
